Answer:
x = approx. 1.24 or -7.24
Step-by-step explanation:
It's hard to factor directly so we should use the quadratic formula or complete the square. I'm going to go with completing the square.
x²+6x-9=0
x²+6x=9
x²+6x is the same as x²+2·3·x, in order to make this into the algebraic identity (A+B)²=A²+2AB+B², we must add B², or in this case 3² to both sides. (A is x, B is 3)
x²+6x+9=18
(x+3)²= 18
x+3= ±√18
x= ±4.24 -3 (approximately 4.24)
First solution for x = 4.24-3 = 1.24
Second solution for x = -4.24-3 = -7.24
Answer:
–0.5
Step-by-step explanation:
Expected value is found by multiplying the probabilities of each roll by the amount won or lost with each roll.
The odd rolls are 1, 3 and 5. The probability of rolling a 1 is 1/6, and the value is 1; this gives us 1/6(1) = 1/6.
The probability of rolling a 3 is 1/6, and the value is 3; this gives us 1/6(3) = 3/6.
The probability of rolling a 5 is 1/6, and the value is 5; this gives us 1/6(5) = 5/6.
Rolling any even number gives us the same value. The probability of rolling an odd number is 3/6, and the value is -4; this gives us 3/6(-4) = -12/6.
Together we have
1/6+3/6+5/6-12/6 = 4/6+5/6-12/6 = 9/6-12/6 = -3/6 = -0.5
Answer:
a) There is suggestive evidence the velvet leaf seed is successful at weed control.
b) Lower bound: 3.699 Upper bound: 6.629
c) Since the confidence interval contains the average percent of seeds to be infected by the beetle (5.164), so we fail to reject the null hypothesis at the specified level of significance.

Answer:
there is only 1 but you have some left over so maybe 2
Answer:
11/2
Step-by-step explanation:
The semi-major axis is 1/2 of the major axis, a, so a = 11/2.
